Parent Involvement
The Lindley Academy community consists of teachers, non-teaching staff, administrators, scholars and parents/guardians. Parents and families are an integral part of a child’s education. We welcome your participation in the school community. Scholars take pride in a school when they see parents, guardians and teachers working side by side to create an optimal learning environment.
On Wednesday, June 10, 2015, Governor Wolf announced that the State will waive fees for the Pennsylvania criminal record check and child abuse clearance for volunteers working with children. The fee waiver of $10 per clearance has been in effect as of July 25, 2015. The child protection law requires volunteers who have not been a continuous resident of Pennsylvania for the last ten years to obtain an FBI criminal history check, which is not administered by the State government. Volunteers who need the FBI criminal history check will still be responsible for the $27 fee. Volunteers who have lived in Pennsylvania for a full ten-years may provide a signed and witnessed waiver in lieu of the FBI criminal history check.
We look forward to working with you!
